Am I sick, AGAIN?!

I LOVE On Guard! No, seriously, I do! Growing up, I was the healthiest kid you’ve ever seen! In fact, I had near perfect attendance. I only missed a week back in first grade because of lice. That all changed once I had to have my spleen removed. Gone were the happy days of rarely being sick. I’m in the same category as babies and the elderly. What does that tell you? Oh, that I catch EVERYTHING!

Once fall comes, it’s like a snowball. I catch one sickness, just in time to feel better to catch the next bug that’s floating around! Anyways, I would like to attest that On Guard has saved me from constantly being ill! In fact, this past winter was my healthiest, sick free, winter since I had my spleen removed! I just drop one drop into my crystal light, or whatever I’m drinking, shake it up and drink!

I had actually stopped taking On Guard when I got a sore throat a week ago. It went from just a tickle in my throat, to feeling like I had a golf ball lodged in my throat in just a few hours! Well, I absolutely hate going to the doctors. I feel like every time I go, I catch something else! So I’m like, forget that, I’m not going to the doctor, I’ll just figure this out on my own. Well, I’m no doctor, I can’t diagnose, but I was pretty sure it wasn’t strep, no white patches. Anyways, I looked up strep, colds, and sore throats in my modern essentials book. Now I’ll tell you right now, some of these oils do NOT taste good! I gargled, then swallowed one to two drops of melaleuca in a couple of ounces of warm water twice a day. I also took a capsule of oregano oil. My throat went from feeling I might need to go to the hospital because it felt so swollen, to absolutely gone in less than 72 hours! INCREDIBLE isn’t it?! Now don’t follow me and not go to the hospital if your throats swelling up that much. I’m just a stubborn country girl that’s always had more faith in home remedies and natural remedies, than the opinion of a doctor. Doctors don’t know what they’re doing. That’s why they call medicine an ART FORM. They are just making informed guesses, and if one thing doesn’t work, they try another. And the medicine they use is pretty much a synthetic of what nature offers us. The only thing different is you don’t have to take synthetic medicine every two hours. That’s when the effectiveness of the oils wears off. So you do have to learn to apply then more often, but you don’t have to worry about your blood pressure rising, like with commercial decongestants. Sometimes the cure they give you is worse than the original symptom! I mean, have you ever listened to the PAGES of side effects they list for the drugs they pawn off on you? Now I’m not saying don’t go to the doctor if you’ve broken a bone, have serious bleeding, or an extreme allergic reaction. I’m just saying maybe you can skip the doctor’s if this is your monthly cold, and you know they can’t do anything about a cold anyways. Just try essential oils! It will be life changing!

  1. Its like you learn my thoughts! You seem to understand
    so much about this, like you wrote the guide in it
    or something. I think that you could do with a few percent to force the message home a little
    bit, but other than that, this is excellent blog.
    An excellent read. I’ll certainly be back.
